EAS 100% Whey Protein Question!

Okay so my main goal is to loose weight but of course I'm also strength training. I have a little under 10 lbs to lose and I want to get more protein in my system. I just bought EAS 100% whey protein but I'm too scared to open it after some of the reviews I read online so I'm not sure if to return it or not. For those of you who have tried it, is it tasty? Is it a good way to get protein to promote my weight loss or is it only good for post workouts?? Should I just return it? I'm looking for something affordable . Thanks!
